Who are the 11 people on here that think this is a good signing??? Are you ALL related to Jim Rutherford? Have you ever watched Cody Ceci play hockey? Have you ever seen a drunkin teenager make decisions before? Well get ready because this guy is even worse.
Jim Rutherford just paid a guy more money who is CONSIDERABLY worse than Jaxk Johnson if you can believe that’s possible. How can you play this guy over Chad Ruhwedel??? How?
wow they get rid of Johnson and replace him with Matheson and Ceci. tbh Ceci is fine at defence but is a black hole everywhere else. i pity pens fans rn

it said do you think its a good signing.... wasn't specific to the penguins. i like the signing as a capitals fan
Cody Ceci is a good defenseman. Is he a top 4 guy? No. Is he worth his previous contract? No. But as a 3rd pairing guy (or an extra) he's a useful player. 1.25M is reasonable.

I would have done this signing if there were no other defensemen available AND there was no flat cap. But right now I have to imagine TVR would have been cheaper and better.

I was going to write: At least Ceci won't have to deal with fan harassment in Pittsburgh. It seems I was wrong.
Your comment is spot on. He doesn't have the offensive production for a 4M contract, and the problem is that most people focus only on offense when evaluating defensemen. But he is very good in his zone. He was trusted by both Babcock and Keefe to defend a lead at the end of a game, which is more telling than the social media crowd. He literally saved a few wins on his own for the Leafs last year with last minute defensive plays - I wish I could post them all here, including the one where he blocked a shot at 5 vs 6 with just a few seconds left.
